The short answer

Agencies, consultancies and startups that sell B2B and work from the inbox and LinkedIn.

Skip it if: consumer businesses and large organizations with elaborate approval processes.

Salesflare delivers on a simple promise: less typing, more following up. It is a strong pick for small B2B teams, particularly agencies and startups selling to other businesses.

$29 per userFull review

Owners and small teams that want an inexpensive, structured replacement for spreadsheets.

Skip it if: growing sales teams that already need scoring, forecasting or sequences.

Bigin is the cheapest sensible way to get a real pipeline CRM. It is ideal as a first system, and when you outgrow it the data moves to Zoho CRM without a painful migration.
